The 1983 December College Committee photo evoked a string of nostalgia in me. I just could not help smiling myself when I remembered Dr. (Prof.) Anke Gowda (who was the HoD of Paediatrics and Superi-ntendent of Cheluvamba Hospital at that time), who during the ward rounds had proudly narrated to us, "Just look at my son Shekar (who was doing PG in General Medicine at K.R. Hospital), Clive Lyod of our Institution ! When he had measles attack at the age of two years, many doctors cautioned me about 'pathya' or dieting for him. On the 10th day after the measles attack, I told my wife to give my son diluted chicken-soup, defying my colleagues' advice! Look at him now, how healthy he has grown !"
